about

Written in Paris about leaving someone beloved behind, spending time alone wandering, thinking about love, what it means and time that has passed by.

lyrics

Where Does the Time Go

When I went away in the dark of the moon,
I was still thinking of you,
wishing we had more time, darling.
I heard the gypsy violins,
sad songs on blackbird wings
and I wept for the time that passed by me.

Chorus:
Where does the time go?
Here and gone.
And oh, what about love?

I dreamed of us all through the night,
and in the morning I awoke
like sleeping beauty kissed by her lover.
Amid the clatter of coffee cups,
honking cars and radios,
I wrote a song for you as I wandered.

chorus

I found a jardin of dappled light
where old men sat day ’til night,
speaking a secret language of tears.
They spoke of wars from long ago,
friends they lost and love they’d known
and . . . oh, where do the years go?

Bridge:
I keep coming back to the music again,
gypsy songs that fill my head
and lead me down the river of longing.

And I’m still thinking of you,
standing here the dark of the moon,
wishing we had more time, darling.

Final Chorus:
Where does the time go?
I want to know
And ohh what about love?
